So you’ve finished Stranger Things Season 2 right? If not, you may want to go do that real quick then meet us back here. Done? Perfect! Now, did you spot all the movie references throughout the nine new episodes?

The first season of the Duffer brothers’ Netflix series was catnip for kids of the ‘80s, and anyone nostalgic for synth-heavy John Carpenter-esque scores and Spielberg classics. That season was so jam-packed with ‘80s movie references it made us wonder, were there really any movies left for the Duffers to nod to? Oh yes, you bet.
